Plans

Go by after my Robotics event

Expedition

I went by, but in my first pass I couldn't get my GPS to line up with reality when my car started running out of Gas. I found gas and then attempted to get some mapping info at a wifi hotspot, but it didn't help once I got out in the road.

I circled around on Barns Road looking for Miller Road, but never found it, and my mapping apps on my handheld weren't being helpful, and the hotspot I found at Starbucks wasn't working for me.

I gave up and came home.
